The CIS is a loose association of states. Although the CIS has few supranational powers, it is aimed at being more than a purely symbolic organization, nominally possessing coordinating powers in the realm of trade, finance, lawmaking, and security. It has also promoted cooperation on cross-border crime prevention.
The CIS Interior Ministers Council was founded in 1996 to expand cooperation between the CIS member nations in crime prevention and law enforcement. The Council members include representatives of Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Ukraine. Turkmenistan partakes in some of the Council’s meetings.
